About

Hi, I’m Maricel and welcome to my blog!

My blog is a profusion of my journey to mommyhood, bits and pieces of everything I love, and all things that inspire me.

In 2011, I gave birth to my first child Maia, a special needs child with a seizure disorder. She taught us about unconditional love, patience and the importance of togetherness. On the 2nd quarter of 2016, baby Ivor was born. We are looking forward for a wonderful life of faith, love, hope and simplicity.

We are based in Manila, renting a small apartment in Taguig. One of my dreams is to have our own house someday, God-willing.

Hello Marice! I have been reading your blog for awhile and now am a follower. I love your style! And, as a newer blogger, I would like to nominate you to join the “Sisterhood of World Bloggers” (it’s really not much of a nomination but you can put a snazzy little button on your blog now that you’ve been nominated!) 😉 Visit my post at http://peoniesnmint.com/2015/08/11/thank-you-for-the-nomination-v-3/ where I tagged you, follow the rules, and welcome to the “club”. Can’t wait to read more of your wonderings in the future!

Thank you for liking my post “Roses and Thorns” at atrivialmindatwork.com. I invite you to come back and see some of my other posts too. I share your vision for a beautiful life – too many Americans are depressed. That is sad.

My name is Christa, I’m the Dutch author of the blog http://www.lilycatherine.wordpress.com. On my tiny part of the world wide web I share everything I love concerning photography, music and lifestyle.

“Altering life by holding it still”

Right now I’m working on this project called Photocrossing. The project found its origin in pure curiosity for the rest of this world. I honestly believe that every place on this planet has its own beauty. Sometimes we tend to forget about it however, since unique environments become normal for its inhabitants over time.

“Exploring this world photo by photo”

The idea behind this project is that we start to appreciate our own environment, by sharing the most beautiful or interesting photographs we have of it. We are hundreds of kilometers away from each other, it’s a whole different world! Two bloggers take a photograph in their own environment, after which they exchange these photographs in order to explore the world bit by bit. (You could also join with a photograph taken at a place you really love, it doesn’t have to be close to your home!) These photographs could be taken at any place. Whether you’d like to show me your garden, the road you travel every day, a city, or that beautiful sunset photograph taken a few miles away; anything is possible as long as the photograph defines your environment! After this we post each other’s photograph together with a brief description of the photo as well as the project.

I’ve been following your blog for some time now and I’d love to work with you on this project! Let me know whether you’re interested, I can’t wait to exchange photographs!

Hi Christa, thanks for the like! I think your blog is great (and you and your daughter are absolutely precious!). It would be perfect to post on our site Upficial, which is a free platform for people like you to get recognized. We value what you do and we think many others would appreciate it too.

We just launched our private beta and we invite you to be one of the first to join. Have a look, create a profile and tell us your honest opinons of how we can make the experience better for you: http://www.upficial.com

I am very jealous – I hope my own children are so adorable! But judging from your Blog she is also very lucky to have such a thoughtful Mum as you – I hope I can be as dedicated when I eventually have children!

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog! I’m so glad you did – it led me to your amazing site! Thanks for the “like” on my “Creative Ways to Announce Your Baby’s Birth.” I hope that we can possibly work together in future.

Thanks for stopping by my blog. Your photos reflect a style similar to my own and things I really like. Your blog is really a nice design and I hope to eventually get mine developed further—I’m really not tech savvy! All the best to you.
